Bob’s Bowling Bonanza Slots

This is a modern slot machine, with plenty of reels and paylines to allow you to place big wagers if you want to, but at the same time offering some good features and at least average graphics. The game is designed by Microgaming, and its action revolves around the game of bowling. It has a bonus feature that is interesting and designed around this popular game.

It’s a game that will give you plenty of chances to win a prize, 30 win lines being available inside, on its 5 reels. A bonus game is part of the slot, plus a scatter symbol and a wild. The jackpot is at $25,000 when it’s at its highest.

Features of Bob’s Bowling Bonanza

The game’s scatters are standard, meaning that you get a bonus game, a scatter symbol and a wild.

The Bowling Pins are all neatly arranged in the image used for the wild symbol, but luckily they can be in any position on the reels in order to trigger the bonus game. It’s not the case with them when they are used as wilds, as for that they will be needed in certain positions on the reels and on the paylines where the rest of the symbols are already in place.

The second symbol would be the Bowling Ball, with a pink background that is full of stars behind it. This scatter symbol has the power to appear in random positions on the reels, and it will award from there payouts, which depend on the total number of symbols of this type. With two to five Bowling Balls present, you get paid 1x to 100x the value of the bet.

Perfect Game Feature

The bonus game is called Perfect Game, and it gets started with the help of the wild. Whenever the wild Bowling Pins are on the 1st, 3rd and 5th reels at the same time, you get this feature. You get three lanes, and you select each one, in order to start the game where you try to knock down pins. Each hit will reveal another prize.

Betting options and jackpots

A total of 30 lines are offered in the game, and in order to activate them all you need to use just as many coins. That’s just the bare minimum though, as you can select up to 20 coins for each line. Denominations between $0.01 and $0.25 are allowed for these coins, and the total line bet can reach $5. The maximum bet, for all the lines, reaches $150.

You can take home 5,000x the line wager, or 100,000 coins. Cash wise that only means $25,000 though.

Design and symbols

The game looks like fun, but it’s no masterpiece if you look at the design. There are too many playing cards used inside, plus the rest of the graphics are a bit older looking as well. Still, the developers managed to make it a decent game, which is fun despite the graphics which are far from perfect. The presence of a bonus game where you actually get to bowl is a strong point in its favor.
